However, the city is considering the possibility of bringing the festival back at a different date. - SaltWire Network fileSUMMERSIDE, P.E.I. — Summerside's Atlanticade Motorcycle Festival is officially on hiatus.
Ribfest’s support brought a lot of money and people to the table. Without a solid commitment for it to return, the case was not there for Atlanticade to move ahead this year without it, said Desrosiers. “What we’re ... hearing from our provincial partners at Tourism P.E.I. is that, from a funding standpoint, they really want us to steer away from large events in the summer months,” said Desrosiers.
JP Desrosiers, director of community services for the City of Summerside, said the decision to not bring the festival back this year comes down to the financial realities it faced, said JP Desrosiers, Summerside’s director of community services. - SaltWire Network file
